Tecumseh homes — what we typically work on
Tecumseh's housing mix ranges from older homes around the downtown loop and along Evans Street (many built 1900-1950, often with original cast-iron boilers and updated ductwork) to mid-century ranches off Russell Road, to newer subdivisions on the east and south edges of town. We work on all of it.

Climate & utility notes for Tecumseh
Equipment in this part of Michigan works hard year-round: January lows often hit -5 to -10°F, July highs push 90°F with high humidity, and Lake Erie influence pushes through both seasons. Most of Tecumseh is on natural gas via Consumers Energy; rural Tecumseh Township properties are often on propane and well water.
Common service calls in Tecumseh
Older furnaces in original ductwork
Many Tecumseh homes built in the 60s-80s still have their original ductwork sized for low-static furnaces. When we replace these with modern higher-static units, we usually need to adjust returns or supply runs to get rated airflow. We check this during the estimate, not after the install.
Federal Pacific & Zinsco panels in older homes
Houses on the older streets occasionally still have Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels — both are known fire hazards and most insurers now require replacement. Panel upgrades to modern Square D or Eaton service include the new panel, meter base if needed, permits, and utility coordination — quoted in writing at the in-home estimate.
Cast-iron boilers and radiator heat
Older Tecumseh homes, especially around downtown, often have original cast-iron boilers and radiators. We keep parts on hand for common 1960s-90s installations, and recommend high-efficiency condensing boiler replacements only when the math actually points that way — many cast iron boilers will go another 10+ years with a proper tune-up.
